Understanding
Mrs. Finkel was hanging out the wash when her gossipy neighbor approached.” I hate to tell you this,” said the gossip,” but there’s a rumor that yiour husband chases girls. And at his age, too.”she clucked.” He’s sixty-five, no?”
“Yes, he’s sixty-five,” said mrs. Finkel.” So let him chase girls. Dogs chase cars also. But when they catch one, can they drive it?”
理 解
当芬克尔夫人将洗完的衣服往外晾时，她的爱搬弄是非的邻居走过来。“我不想告诉你这事，”这位爱讲闲话的人说道，“可是有谣传你的丈夫在追逐女孩子。而且还是他这样的年龄，”她啧啧地表示道。“他六十五了，还没到吗？”
“是的，他六十五了，”芬克尔夫人说道，“就让他去追逐女孩子吧。狗还追逐汽车呢。但是当它们追上汽车之后，它们能开车吗？”
